Organizations that wish to establish a CSR strategy can look for guidance from organizations that have already been successful in their initiatives.

  1. TRUE
  2. FALSE

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Organizations developing a CSR strategy can benefit from benchmarking against those with proven success in CSR initiatives. This involves learning from best practices, frameworks, and case studies of organizations that have effectively integrated social, environmental, and economic goals. The CIPS L3M6 module encourages this approach, noting that collaboration and knowledge-sharing with successful entities (e.g., signatories to the UN Global Compact or CDP leaders) can accelerate CSR adoption and improve outcomes.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:
